[Bug 607061] Re: screen brightness unchangable

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Hello, I am using a Gateway NV5927U laptop and the screen brightness is
  unchangeable via the keyboard controls.  The brightness is stuck at 100%
  and changing values inside of /proc/acpi/video/GFX0 have no effect on
- the brightness.  Please let me know what else you may need.  The
- brightness can be controlled inside of windows and visually stays dim
- until GDM starts, at this point the screen raises to full brightness and
- is locked at that state.
